 MD, NRLM, stated that the target of employment for 25000 people fixed under the programme shall be achieved by the end of the financial year.

While stating that although only 202 Bank Sakhis have been engaged so far, MD, NRLM held out the assurance that the target of engaging 2000 bank Sakhis shall also be met as there is adequate scope in this space to provide means of livelihood to the women by engaging them as Sakhis.

Under PMEGP, it was informed that the department has created employment for 63829 people against an annual target of 1. 5 lakh employment.

Dr Mehta advised Administrative Secretary Labour and Employment to continuously monitor the creation of employment opportunities across all sectors on daily bases, especially the delay in sanction of the government sponsored cases in the banks, while further adding that if a bank delays sanction in a case beyond a month, it should be brought to his notice so that remedial measures are taken.
